About Assoc Prof Volkan Tümay

Assoc. Prof. Dr Volkan Tümay is a General Surgery Specialist based in Bursa, Türkiye, with extensive clinical experience in complex abdominal, colorectal, breast and minimally invasive surgery.

He graduated from Istanbul University Cerrahpaşa Faculty of Medicine in 1998 and subsequently specialised in General Surgery at Uludağ University Faculty of Medicine, completing his residency in 2004.

Dr Tümay adopts the principle of “minimum non nocere” (first, do no harm) as the foundation of his practice, and he performs a wide range of general surgical procedures to high standards. During his residency, he developed a particular interest in breast disease and breast cancer surgery, and this has remained a key focus throughout his career, with significant experience in both benign and malignant breast conditions. He spent time at the Cleveland Clinic in the United States as an observer in breast surgery, studying varied surgical approaches.


In 2016 he completed a Level III Oncoplastic Breast Cancer Surgery certification, enabling him to apply advanced reconstructive techniques to improve cosmetic outcomes for appropriate patients. He also holds the European Board of Surgery qualification in Coloproctology and a Turkish Surgical Board certification, reflecting his broader expertise in colorectal and abdominal surgery.


Dr Tümay has served in leadership roles within prominent private hospitals, including Acıbadem Health Group and Doruk Nilüfer Hospital, and he also held academic posts, including as a Senior Lecturer. In 2021 he was awarded the title of Associate Professor (Doçent). His clinical philosophy emphasises early detection, personalised treatment planning and compassionate communication, ensuring that patients feel supported throughout diagnosis and treatment.

We walked into the examination with trepidation, but thanks to Dr. Volkan, we left feeling incredibly relieved. His calming approach, attention to detail, and mastery of his profession are truly undeniable. He is a physician with a deep understanding of patient psychology. He answered every question patiently and cheerfully, explaining every detail meticulously. His compassion and expertise put us at ease. I wholeheartedly recommend him, and thank him again.

We visited the Nilüfer Doruk Emergency Department with undiagnosed upper abdominal pain for two months, and thanks to referrals, we were fortunate enough to meet Dr. Volkan. He performed my gallbladder surgery, a risky and difficult procedure, with great dedication and success. The care, patience, and cheerful demeanor he showed before and after the surgery instilled great confidence in both me and my family. He is not only an expert surgeon in his field, but also an exemplary physician with his humbleness and appreciation for humanity. We cannot thank Dr. Volkan enough. We are so grateful that our paths crossed, and we are so grateful to have met such a doctor. We also thank Dr. Volkan and all the healthcare professionals who contributed to the surgery. Thank you, may you prosper. May Dr. Volkan's path and fortune always be bright. May he continue to succeed. We are so grateful to have you.

I remember Dr. Volkan in 2012, when I met him after my mother's colon diagnosis, and his approach to the process, his reassurance that nothing would happen to her, is still fresh in my mind. Thanks to him, my mother truly got through this process; she was reborn. In October, I was worried about a lump in my groin and found Dr. Volkan at Doruk Nilüfer Hospital. I immediately knocked on his door. His approach to the process, his careful follow-up, and his detailed analysis wouldn't change for any other doctor. I followed everything he said to the letter, and a very successful surgery got rid of the lump. Varol Dr. 🙏🏻

Shortly after discovering a lump in my left breast, I crossed paths with Dr. Volkan. Immediately after the examination, he quickly ordered a biopsy without tiring me out, because my esteemed doctor had already recognized the potential complications. And just as he predicted, the tumor turned out to be Stage 2 breast cancer. We went into surgery without delay, and he delivered me back to my mother, safe and sound, on Mother's Day. It was the best possible operation. I don't know whose prayers I received, but our doctor was my greatest asset. He never tired me during this process, always empathized with me, and helped me make alternative decisions. I'M GLAD YOU'RE WITH YOU, MR.
